Leadwerks 3.1 under Linux with a OpenGL 3.2 graphic card?

[Alex88]

Hey guys,

 

I have a question about Leadwerks 3.1. Josh said Leadwerks 3.1 use under Linux an OpenGL 4 renderer so if I'm right, my graphic card with OpenGL 3.2 is too old and I need to buy a new one. Is that right?

I have similar question, about Intel HD 4600 Haswell.

@ Josh " They don't suppor OpenGL 4 yet. Mesa is supposed to have those out in January 2014"

i'll be work, January?

OpenGL 4 support is needed for tessellation shaders and MSAA. Fortunately, good hardware is cheap:

I'm talking to the Mesa guys now. The Intel graphics chips on Windows actually run quite well, to my surprise.

I bought just the Intel ® NUC (Core i3-4010U HD Graphics 4400), insert there Radeon HD 6670 is impossibru.

How long do you think it will take to wait for support OpenGL 4 on linux (Intel drivers). Should I wait or buy Windows.

Last time I talked to them, the Mesa guys said they would have OpenGL 4 support some time this January.
